Hi guys,
          I am a simple fix guy, and replacing the /dev/cd and /dev/dvd 
both with /dev/scd0 sure worked for me, and seems logical given what the 
cd/dvd calls itself (ie scd0) mounted in (K)ubuntu Hardy. And It is the 
same in Ibex KDE 4.01 as well.
It sure fixed both Kaffeine and Xine which also gave the encryption error.

Surely I am not a unique case out there, there must have been many with 
the same problem.
No jerky replay either, it works  great.
Incidentally kscd would not play either until I went into the 
configuration and confirmed the /dev/scd0 it had detected and then it 
was fine too playing cd's.
So thanx again Douglas for that vital piece of information, for me the 
case seems closed and proven from 3 packages now.
Surely thee times proves it.
Cheers
Rod
